Hello if this is not appropriate for this list please excuse me and disregard this email.
Hi Sam, Answering your zeroith question for the sake of others who might have similar ones: I believe that your question is off topic for the NANOG list. https://www.nanog.org/list Acceptable Use Policy 1. Discussion will focus on Internet operational and technical issues as described in the charter of NANOG. https://www.nanog.org/history/charter 1. The North American Network Operators' Group (NANOG) exists to promote dialog between people concerning the creation, maintenance and operation of Internet Protocol networks. Conversation here ranges widely across topics that just barely connect back (and that's a good thing), but "Who is a good vendor for [super generic commodity service]?" is a miss even for the normal breadth.

I thought of no better place than this place however if there is a better place for this email please advise and I will direct the email and the student to the questions.
I received an email form a student this morning asking the following questions. 1. Are there any email providers that market to professional but offer a student rate or are of good quality but inexpensive etc..
2. I have looked at the Microsoft exchange server in the cloud while it looks promising it does not seems to fit my cost ratio
3. I would mainly like to be able to have a professional email address so when I apply for jobs and other business of that sort I can be seen as a professional and to gather my email from various sources i.e. Gmail, Hotmail etc. and to present a more professional appearance to my work and school work etc..
I responded that he should look at google apps, however his questions got me thinking and I google around for an answer to give him, however I am not as well versed as I should be in the cloud besides for backup service and active directory management. I would like to know if you guys have any places I own give the student.
Thanks Samual Office of technology education
